Hello CS Friends!

I am originally from New Zealand but have been living in Australia for the last 2 years. I found my love for travelling 3 years ago when I did a 45 day Contiki tour through Europe. Since my return home the plan was to save every penny for our first home but that plan quickly went out the window!! My fiancé and I have been traveling for nearly 7 months now and have visited over 15 countries since.
That means we have plenty of stories to tell and many jokes to share!

On our adventures we have been lucky enough to do volunteer work at a hostel in Romania where we met some amazing people and made some unforgettable memories!

Don't hesitate to have a look at or workaway profile as well where you will find a different kind of information about us!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is the best way to meet new people and learn how others live in there day to day lives. The different cultures around the world is eye opening and I love being involved in new experiences.

Interests

One of my loves is to explore new cafes and find the best coffee possible! So far my all time favourite place is "The Turtle Cafe" in Melbourne! The Turtle benedict is a must have and the cappuccino is to die for!!
Would happily go cafe hunting!
When I'm not at a cafe or at home in my pj's I enjoy playing social netball and cooking!
